For this statistics worksheet, students collect data on train time using speed and time. They differentiate between the upper and lower bound of their data. There are 7 questions on 2 pages.

Students create an accelerometer and take measurements of acceleration in a moving car. They study the car speeding up in a straight line, slowing in a straight line and curving at constant speed. They prepare a lab report showing...

Students move with control in general space. They move with three different spatial distances and tempi. Students demonstrate understanding of the distance and speed of particles in matter: solid-close and slow; liquid-medium distance...

Learners investigate speed, time and distance. In this algebra lesson, students utilize their knowledge of linear equations to solve problems related to time, speed and distance. This assignment is hands on using two toy race cars.

Twelfth graders look at local speed limits and traffic controls and see if they are reasonable. They plot the displacement and time to represent velocity, develop a plan for improving the current system, and organize experimental...

Seventh graders follow and record the progress of a musher on the Iditarod race. They access the official Iditarod website, determine the musher's overall speed, the daily average temperature and daily hours of sunlight, and develop a...

Students determine the speed of nervous transmission in an integrated nervous system. Students understand the differences between signal transmission in a single neuron and in a nervous system. Students create a little group rapport.

In this motion worksheet, students read about the invention of the Dymaxion car that was designed to achieve high speeds. Students complete 2 short answer questions based on the reading.

Students use Olympic athlete statistics to make algebraic calculations. For this algebraic equation lesson, students use algebra to calculate athlete speed and calories burned.

Students discover how to capture the speed of wind. In this science activity lesson, students gather materials and follow procedures to create an anemometer to measure wind speed.

Students explore the implications of teen driving. In this personal health lesson, students research and discuss impaired driving, seat belt usage, speeding, and distracted driving. Students then create public awareness marketing...

Students are introduced to the science of hurricanes in an effort to highlight how forces change the speed and direction of motion.

Third graders measure the speed at which they can walk in order to understand speed and distance traveled. They then research the history of transportation and express data in a class timeline.

Eighth graders calculate the speed of bottles as they roll down a ramp with varying amounts of sand inside. Using their data, 8th graders estimate speed of three labeled bottles with different amounts of sand and compare those results...

Students in this exercise are introduced to the distinct ways of measuring distance (nautical miles) and speed (knots) at sea, as well as the concepts of latitude and longitude for establishing location.

Learners compare the speed at which they write with their left hand to the speed at which they write with their right hand. The experiment serves as a vehicle to help students develop a conceptual understanding of the three different...

Compare the drift speed of conduction electrons in a current-carrying wire to the signal speed of changes in current. They also distinguish between DC and AC and describe how AC is converted to DC.

In this science worksheet, students find the answers to significant questions about speed and velocity while looking for meaning with the help of others in class or online from a homework buddy.

In this science learning exercise, students find the answers to significant questions about speed and velocity while looking for meaning with the help of others in class or online from a homework buddy.

In this compound measures worksheet, students solve and complete 3 different types of problems. First, they determine how far it takes a person to cycle in a given amount of time. Then, students find the average speed of described...

In this harmonic motion worksheet, students use the equations for the speed of a wave and speed of sound to complete 9 problems and 9 fill in the blank questions.

High schoolers observe and analyze their partner while they run fast, and teach each other up to eight cues to improve speed and technique.

Students explore how tornadoes are the most violent storms on earth. Raging at speeds of up to 300 miles per hour, their awesome winds can flip cars through the air like leaves, snap trees like matchsticks, and reduce entire towns to...

Students, through a literature based assignment, explore basic modes of transportation and examine how different things move at different speeds.
